I keep seeing a green mini that has white arches on a regular basis somewhere along the N11 around Wicklow, each time I see it I try to give a flash and a wave but obviously with me being in the Focus they don't flash back

To the other 99 BRG sportpack in Santry on friday,

what you didn't see was the fella at the bus stop that watched me pull up, then saw you go past and then had to walk over to where I parked to make sure he wasn't seeing things the first time......Biggest and most obvious double take I've ever seen...... Made me laugh.

Spotted a fiesta yellow/white Mk1 Morris Cooper or S driving through the Curragh, Co. Kildare :shock: . A very rare Mk1 colour only used between 1962-65. She had a ZV Reg, anyone know this car?

Saw a black and white cooper (91 d) i think, in my rear view mirror coming down Kylemore Road onto the Ballyfermot Roundabout yesterday afternoon.

Also, does anyone here own the white clubman that was at the Vantastival Launch on Saturday?
